I fear forgetting something so much that I often stop the car on the side of the highway and check my bag one last time on my way to a game. Most of our games are at least a half hour away so running back home is not an option.
Also, I was watching the first game of our largest tournament in our area last weekend and a newbie varsity official forgot his whistle until he raised his hand for the toss. He stopped things to get his spare in his jacket but it was not there, so down to the locker room. A few minutes later he got a standing O when returning to the court. Tough start greenhorn.
